You can use a Actor to show the other use case and send a message to that actor indicating the execution of that use case

Vishwa,

Excellent Idea! I can see how that would work well but, I am concered about representing anything other than an actual user or system as an actor...sorta referencing my experience and also "UML Distilled" for the basis of this concern.

I think UML can be changed to do what you need with it -but- I would like to hear a few more ideas before taking one route or another.

Currently, I have a couple notes on the page at the bottom of the sequence diagram but that seems wrong too...

Any other ideas out there?

When you say "an actual user or system as an actor...", think of the use case as a (Sub) System...
